Shen Li was a little confused and glanced at Gu Jingcheng who was sitting next to her. Should she remember?

Gu Jingcheng also had a confused look on his face, and couldn't help but feel a little worried, wondering if there was something Shen Li hadn't figured out.

Gu Zhengrong laughed, "Haha, the little girl's memory is not as good as an old man like me~"

Shen Li smiled awkwardly and looked carefully at the kind and amiable old man in front of him, but he really had no impression of him.

Gu Jingcheng also became curious, "Grandpa, do you know her?"

"My granddaughter-in-law, now we know each other."

Gu Zhengrong looked at Shen Li with a smile and did not continue the topic.

"You must be hungry, let's go eat."

Gu Zhengrong stood up, and Uncle Jin, the housekeeper who was standing nearby, immediately went over to support him.

Gu Zhengrong looked in good spirits, but because he had injured his leg when he was young, his legs and feet were not very convenient as he got older, and the pain was severe especially on cloudy and rainy days.

He walked in front with a cane. Shen Li wanted to support Gu Zhengrong, but Gu Jingcheng gently pulled his arm from behind.

Gu Jingcheng leaned over and asked in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Have you met my grandfather before?"

Shen Li shook his head, "No."

She thought for a long time and indeed had no impression of Gu Zhengrong.

She wondered if Gu Zhengrong had seen her when he went to visit his friends at the nursing home where she worked?

Just as I was thinking about it, a cold voice rang in my ear: "You'd better not hide anything from me, and don't have any evil thoughts."

again!

Just when Shen Li had a slight change of opinion about him, this man's words made him come to his senses again.

He was still the man who, in seemingly casual conversation, was full of warnings and threats to her.

But the next moment, Gu Jingcheng seemed like a different person at the dinner table. He picked up food for her and took good care of her.

Shen Li was also very cooperative, and the two of them looked so sweet and intimate, just like a loving newlywed couple.

Shen Li smiled, but secretly complained in his heart: It's a pity that Gu Jingcheng didn't become an actor after seeing his face change like this~ old fox!

Shen Li focused more on Gu Zhengrong, she was very clear about her mission.

With the blessing of professionalism, she can do her job with ease. Even the most difficult patients in the nursing home can be made to cooperate with her.

Gu Zhengrong was so happy that he said, "Ah Cheng, I think you should move back with my granddaughter-in-law."

Living together?!

When he heard that they were going to move in together, the smile on Shen Li's face froze. Realizing that the situation might be heading out of control, he dropped the food he had picked up back into his own bowl.

Shen Li nervously looked at Gu Jingcheng, who was also caught off guard, and kept winking at him, afraid that he would blurt out the words of agreement.

Gu Jingcheng smiled, his face calm, picked up some food for Gu Zhengrong, and said, "Grandpa, you know, I've gotten used to it over the years..."

The words were not made very clear, so Shen Li was naturally confused, but she could clearly feel that the atmosphere had subtly changed.

Gu Zhengrong sighed, his eyes full of heartache and self-blame, "Grandpa knows that you have been wronged over the years, but with the Gu family in such a state now, I don't know how long my old bones can hold on..."

It is impolite to interrupt when elders are talking. Gu Jingcheng was just listening quietly at first, but when Gu Zhengrong said those unlucky words, Gu Jingcheng interrupted him immediately.

"Grandpa, you are in good health, you are not allowed to say such things!"

Gu Jingcheng's expression was serious, and it was obvious that he cared a lot.

Gu Jingcheng's father, Gu Qiliang, died in a car accident half a year ago. Although the relationship between father and son has always been tense, they are close relatives and how can they not be sad when facing the death of a loved one.

In front of him was his grandfather who loved him the most. He couldn't imagine what would happen if he lost his loved one again.

Shen Li saw that the atmosphere was not right, so he quickly tried to smooth things over, "Grandpa, let me tell you, there is an old man in our nursing home who is over 80 years old and can still change the light bulbs in his room. I think your health is no worse than his."

He said this with a look of disbelief on his face, and his exaggerated expression made Gu Zhengrong laugh.

"Oh my, so awesome?"

"And not only that. One time he climbed onto the roof to save a kitten. We were almost scared to death when we found him. I don't dare to go up to such a high roof."

"Really? You are not trying to make me happy, old man?"

"Of course it's true. When he came down, I was holding the ladder for him! The old man practices Tai Chi in the yard every morning. I secretly told you that my aunt wrote him a love letter."

Shen Li successfully changed the subject. Gu Jingcheng listened quietly to the conversation between the grandfather and grandson. Looking at the excited Shen Li, his eyes unconsciously lingered for a few seconds without him noticing.

The harmonious atmosphere was suddenly interrupted by an uninvited guest.

Shan Daiyun walked in from the door with her waist twisted. I don't know if her voice was naturally loud or if she did it on purpose, but her voice could be heard from far away.

"What are you talking about so happily?"

Hearing the voice, Gu Jingcheng's face instantly turned gloomy, and Gu Zhengrong was no longer smiling as happily as before.

Soon, Shan Daiyun appeared at the door of the restaurant, followed by two servants, their hands full of supplements.

"Dad, I came to see you and brought you some supplements."

Shan Daiyun greeted Gu Zhengrong, and then he seemed to see Gu Jingcheng's surprised face: "Jingcheng is here too, are you here to see grandpa too?"

As he spoke, he walked to the dining table. The smile on his face was so hypocritical that even an outsider like Shen Li could see it.

Gu Jingcheng ignored her and looked very unhappy.

Shan Daiyun continued to ask with concern: "Dad, how are you doing recently?"

Gu Zhengrong responded indifferently: "Well, you are thoughtful. I heard from Xiaochuan that you went abroad to relax?"

The implication is, shouldn't you be on vacation now? Why are you here?

Gu Jingcheng also knew this, so according to the original plan, she should be abroad now instead of appearing here.

He also specially chose the old house to bring Shen Li back because Dan Daiyun was not in Kyoto.

However, he never expected that he still underestimated Shan Daiyun's methods. He didn't know where he got the news from, but he was so impatient to follow him back to the old house.

"That was originally my plan, but I was still worried before I left, so I decided not to go."

Shen Li didn't know what the relationship was between the woman in front of him and Gu Jingcheng, but judging from the atmosphere, it didn't seem harmonious.

It would never be wrong to act according to Gu Jingcheng's reaction, so Shen Li just stayed there quietly.

But it was obvious that Shan Daiyun did not intend to let her be a transparent person quietly.

Shan Daiyun had been looking at Shen Li since he came in, and finally couldn't help asking, "Is this girl Jing Cheng's wife?"

Shen Li had been observing Gu Jingcheng's reaction, and before Shen Li responded, Shan Daiyun became very enthusiastic and talked to her.

"You are so beautiful, Jing Cheng treats you like a treasure, and now I finally get to see you. Hello, I am Jing Cheng's... stepmother."

How come there is a stepmother? She has never mentioned it before.
